I get baffled by some of our plazzy toff fans on here getting ahead of our station, who actualy do you think we are exactly, we are team who has won one major trophy in coming up to 23 years and people talk like we are some super big Club like Real Madrid. People need a serious reality check on here regarding a manager, listen we will not be getting Pepe or Josei, they would'nt touch us with a barge pole and unfortunately the Liverpool Job is no longer the pinnacle as it was 20 or 30 odd years ago.
There may be a chance of getting a very young, up and coming manager in Martinez, he localish, plays football in the right way, is modest, hungry to make a name for himself and most importanly seem to really, really, want the job if reports that he has flew to Boston for an interview are true.
What exactly have we as a club in our current situation got to lose, he may get it wrong and he may be worse than Dalglish but there again he may get it right and slowly but surely turn things around and improve us, we just may have a gamble on our hands that just may pay off if we give him a chance, lets just see what happens if this man gets the job, dont write him off before we see what he can do, nearly every top manager had to start somewhere they just needed somebody to take a chance on them.
I count 9 major trophies in the last 23 years

No problem, but can I have some protection from the people on here talking about Benitez getting the job and Dalglish should not of been sacked, I find these comments vulgar, in bad taste and very offensive, fairs fair afterall.

Between MArtinez and AVB, its the portugeuse any day of the week. Just because he has failed that Chelsea due to a very impatient owner and player power courtesy of Terry, Drogba and Lmpard does not mean he is a bad manager.
AVB is a very hungry manager and would have learned his mistakes.
Of course there is the Rafa-factor. i'm nuetral on this one..havenot decided if i want him back just yet although he is the only one amongst the considered candidates that wont look out of depth with Van Gaal breathing down your neck

Don't you suppose that's exactly why we need a proven manager rather than taking chance upon chance with unproven ones. LFC is not a training academy for managers. How many Roy's do you want going through this place. We need the ship turned around NOW. We are at the crossroads and we cannot get this wrong. Bring in a proven manager. A club in our position, at this point in time, has everything to lose.

No idea what a plazzy toff is, but he's dead right that we are a long way from being able to snap our fingers at managers. We are a mid table side and need to build on that, not pretend that if we get some big name (we won't)that all will miraculously be well.
I honestly don't know who I would like in place, but it needs to be someone who can take a lot of pressure, and can mould the players we have into a winning team. I'm not crazy about Martinez, but I am crazy about this club, and he might well be the calming influence we need.
He's shown that he can change tactics and set-up when necessary, and he is articulate, which will make a welcome change at the post game press conference when the world watches the manager represent the club.
Did all 12 'hopefuls' fly to Boston? If not, I'd agree that his appointment is very likely, and then, thank the Lord, we can have some new threads here. :-)

Martinez will essentially be the end of any hopes of being in the top 4 in the premier league for the foreseeable future in my opinion.
I think had this position came up a few month ago, he would not even be a contender, his team bothered to play for the last few games and only against the big teams. We already have suffered years of this scenario, too little too late and beating big teams but not getting it right against teams we should be beating.
Yeah we are not as big as was but do not for a moment suggest that we cant attract a better manager than Martinez.
The fans will be on this guys back inside a 2 months if he doesn't by some miracle hit the ground running cos people will be waiting for him to slip up. Its Hodgson all over again.

He's definately a more proven manager than Martinez.

Martinez over rafa for me, rafa will just be Kenny part two
The owners went for the fans choice last time and looked what happened
Martinez while not ideal would move us in the right direction
AVB is my preferred choice
